Getting CellID or other location data on J2ME platform - java-me

Is there a universal way we can retrieve CellID in J2ME or what's the usual standard practice to get those information ?

Getting the Cellid is still limited by mobile phone platform, Sign-certificate and Operator and different on most mobile phones.
The links does cover most (not all, imho) ways to get the cellID from the device properties.

How to cast Local Video using google cast sdk on iOS Sender

searched for similar issues in this forum, and in the previous replies, someone suggested to embed a webService in iOS platform to implement it, but last year someone suggested to use MediaStore (but this does not apply to the iOS platform, and there is no following in the reply)
I checked google's relevant documents, but I didn't find any API that can implement casting local video/image, maybe I didn't read them carefully enough.
Do you have a good solution?
With the way that senders work, you are expected to implement your own local player. The requirements that your app needs to meet then is to ensure that you are able to transition from the local player to the cast device and vice versa. I would suggest you to look at the cast videos sample for reference. We use a simple AVPlayer in the sample: https://github.com/googlecast/CastVideos-ios/blob/master/CastVideos-swift/Classes/LocalPlayerView.swift

Getting Bluetooth access in Appcelerator titanium for IOS and ANDROID

I am trying to get the list of Bluetooth devices and check if a particular device is connected or not with titanium Appclerator. What is the best approach?
I have used the library https://github.com/hansemannn/titanium-bluetooth/ but not sure how to achieve what I want.
Did you take a look at the provided API documentation? It's not in the index markdown at the root of the project, but rather here: https://github.com/hansemannn/titanium-bluetooth/blob/master/documentation/index.md
I have not used the module but it seems to me like you would startScan with the CentralManager which I'm assuming returns a list of peripherals that you could then connect to.

Is it possible to make a receiver app for chrome tab

I'm posting here because I didn't find any satisfying answer anywhere.
The question is quiet simple. I see a lot of application implementing the cast feature on Android. The issue is that even if I have a brand new smart TV, it actually doesn't support the cast feature of the majority of my apps.
For example, my TV has a Youtube app so I can cast youtube videos from the youtube app on my phone to my TV.
Now I would like to cast my favorite streaming app to my TV but my TV is not found. So I'm thinking, okay let's try to make an app for my TV that will receive that kind of command.
I know that I can make an app for my TV. Before starting that ambitious project, I want to be sure that the google cast sdk will allow me to write such receiver app.
Do you think this is possible ? Or do we really need one receiver app for every emitter app ?
YouTube uses its own discovery protocol beyond what the Cast SDK supports. Apps need to integrate the Cast SDK in their senders and implement receivers that support their authentication and DRM.

Achieve geofencing using xamarin.forms

I am trying to implement geofencing through xamarin.forms. First i have started my work in iOS then i found a library i.e. CoreLocation, in this i am using CLCircularRegion class for making virtual boundary.
CLCircularRegion region = new CLCircularRegion(new CLLocationCoordinate2D(+28.5003615,+77.0718658), 1.0, "MDS");
But i am not sure about the central points(latitude,longitude) which is passed in CLLocationCoordinate2D. How can i get exact latitude and longitude of my place and how i can implement geofencing in correct manner in iOS through xamarin.forms.
How can I get exact latitude and longitude of my place
Once you set the Geofencing the device start to track you location to see if you entered the defined fence. You can also use the MKMapView to identify and follow the user.
I have put together a small sample project couple of weeks ago to demonstrate the Geofencing in iOS
how i can implement geofencing in correct manner in iOS through xamarin.forms.
The Geofencing is platform-specific code that you cannot really abstract out in shared project. Instead, you can use DependencyService to access the method/events from iOS project to Shared project

Use hardware search button

I have experience with Android's search functionality as described here: http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/search/index.html, but haven't been able to find anything similar for windows phone 7.
Alternatively, what is the best approach to provide search functionality within your windows phone application?
The search scope is within the application itself, and while it is obviously possible to implement it myself, I'm looking for something that follows the ui guidelines of windows phone 7, and possibly also an interface to provide search results from the app, even when the search button is pressed while the app is in the background.
You are fully responsible for handling search within your app. There are no WP7 specific guidelines or tools available. Do what's best within the context of your app.
You cannot integrate with the built in search facility to include app specific results with anything returned as part of a bing search.
To add, interface to Windows Phone 7 hardware search button is not exposed to third party developers. You need to provide your own search button in the application and handle it appropriately.
